SURGERY TAKES ME OUT OF THE STUDIO FOR 2 WEEKS!

I can't believe it is nine days since I had my surgery. Hopefully the next week will go by more quickly and I will be back in the studio in no time.

It is hard though.....I keep looking up those stairs knowing what is waiting for me. In the meantime, my knitting will keep me going until then.

The first quilt class was held yesterday. It is one of two classes. I heard that it is a really good class and that the teacher is equally as good. I almost went but my neighbor convinced me that it was too soon for me to go to something like that so soon after surgery. I suppose she is right but I came so close...

TODAY I SEW!

I can't believe it. Today I am actually sewing in my studio. It is a beautiful sunny day here on top of the mountain and I am feeling on top of the world. I love it here. Unfortunately, I wish I could say that Jay is having as good a day as I am. He is putting up tongue and grove pine but it isn't going well at the moment. He is still singing though so that is a good sign.

The new quilt shop in town is just beautiful and I look forward to the classes that will be coming. I am also looking forward to trying out a Gammil long arm sewing machine in April. Speaking of which, is anyone going to the Original Sewing and Quilt Expo in April? It will be in Worcester Ma from April 8 through the 9th. I am going so if anyone in the Catskill area wants to go send me a note. I will be driving in so hop a ride. It will be so much fun!

Just a reminder.....come and visit The Patchwork Co. in Windham. You won't be sorry.

Happy sewing.

HALF DONE

It is hard to believe that half the studio (the media section) is set up. The other half of the room is almost there. I will be sewing in the studio by the end of the weekend. And then I will begin sewing through my library.

Jay has been working on the tongue and grove pine that he has been putting up. It looks wonderful. He is amazing and I love it!!!!
